We have been spelling GameCube wrong for awhile...

**Sandman** · 11-30-2005, 06:56 AM

Did you guys know that the actual official way to spell GameCube is GAMECUBE?

I don't know why I just posted this or even why I just remembered it.

And the abbreviation is not NGC, but GCN.

Yeah, NGC got them into some legal issues. I forget with who though. Google "NGC" and see what turns up. It's scary.

Government Computer News.
Global Communications Network.
Gay Community News.

Nothing of Gamecube... GAMECUBE mentioned on the first page.

It was also, NeoGeo Console

***Zeep*** · 12-06-2005, 01:03 AM

...but no one has ever used "NGC" since like 2001.

**venomv** · 12-06-2005, 02:13 AM

Yeah I just call it GC, GCN just doesn't flow right, but legal troubles with names can hit anyone.

^ He meant you need to capitalize all the letters of GAMECUBE to spell it right.

**n1n9tean** · 12-06-2005, 07:06 AM

................still don't get it.

**Lynk Former** · 12-06-2005, 08:19 AM

You don't need to capitalise the letters to spell it right. Aaaaaaaaages ago IGN had asked Nintendo how exactly is GameCube spelt and Nintendo told them that you could spell it as GameCube or GAMECUBE, but not Game Cube or Gamecube. Shortly after we were told that the official acronym was GCN instead of NGC because of the Neo Geo Color.
